Intel's Multi Core Model Based Computing

Intel China Research Center is working on Model-based Computing to optimize the use of its multi core microprocessor technology. Hint, Microsoft is currently looking closer into virtualization software. It seems that virtualization it’s more related to server technology. The virtualization strategy combined with utility computing that uses virtual machines, & the third most important factor; the multi core chip’s scalability, performance & power efficiency to reach high levels of work load consolidation in data centers.
